Abstract
A signal detection device including: detection equipment including a photoelectric conversion element configured to convert a photon as a detection target into a current signal, and a current-voltage converter configured to convert the current signal into a voltage signal; a transmission unit configured to transmit the voltage signal; and a data collection unit configured to detect and collect the transmitted voltage signal. Here, the detection equipment is disposed inside a first shield case connected to a frame ground. The current-voltage converter includes a differential amplifier having first and second input terminals, the first input terminal is connected to a first output terminal of the photoelectric conversion element via a first input resistor, the second input terminal is connected to a second output terminal of the photoelectric conversion element and a ground via a second input resistor having a resistance value larger than that of the first input resistor.
